Is there anyway to put Locked thread button in locked thread in showthread ?

The Locked Button/Closed Button is shown to users who do not have special permissions like the Moderators, Super Moderators and Administrators.

Basically, it will show a 'Closed' button for normal members. However, for Moderators, Super Moderators and Administrators, it will show a New Reply button instead.

In showthread.php, find:

		if($thread['closed'] != "yes" || ismod($fid) == "yes") {
			eval("\$newreply = \"".$templates->get("showthread_newreply")."\";");
		} else {
			eval("\$newreply = \"".$templates->get("showthread_newreply_closed")."\";");
		}

Replace with:

		if($thread['closed'] != "yes") {
			eval("\$newreply = \"".$templates->get("showthread_newreply")."\";");
		} else {
			eval("\$newreply = \"".$templates->get("showthread_newreply_closed")."\";");
		}
